Ms. Kate Mitchell
My name is Kate Mitchell, and I am a 4th grade teacher at the JYJ! I absolutely love working with children and have been doing so for 20 years! The majority of that time at Joyner! I am from Halifax, Virginia, and I went to high school here in Raleigh at St. Mary’s. I graduated from the College of Charleston in South Carolina in 1997 with a BA in Theatre Arts. I started teaching in 2002. I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life!
For fun, I train train train for Triathlons and completed my first Half Ironman in the Spring of 2017. I train for full marathons and triathlons and love fitness in general. I enjoy bringing fitness into my classroom! I also love to travel and hope to see as much of the world as possible.
The children I meet each year bring so much joy to my life, and I look forward to what the future holds!

Ms. Calla Sherrow
My name is Ms. Sherrow. I am a graduate of East Carolina University...Go Pirates! This is my 24th year teaching at Joyner and my 20th year coaching Cheerleading at Sanderson High School. In my free time I enjoy shopping, walking, going to Carolina Hurricanes games, and spending time with my family and friends. I have a beautiful Golden Retriever named Marley that is very sweet and full of energy. I am probably best known around Joyner for my love of candy, bad eating habits, and being silly with Ms. Cameron. I love teaching at Joyner and look forward to a great year!

Ms. Elizabeth Stavrakakis
My name is Elizabeth Stavrakakis and I’m so excited to be teaching at J. Y. Joyner Magnet Elementary School this year. I have grown up in Wake County since I was in first grade and am a recent graduate of NC State, where I earned my B.S. in Elementary Education with a STEM concentration and a minor in psychology. I completed my student teaching at A. B. Combs Magnet Elementary School in fourth grade and I can’t wait to continue teaching fourth grade here. Outside of school, I love going to the beach any chance I get, trying out new recipes in the kitchen, and cheering on the Wolfpack. I’m looking forward to a great year!
